The structures of AuH and AuI are already known, now the long-sought-after molecules AuH₃ (=(H₂)AuH) and AuH₅ (=H₃Au(H₂)) have been detected by matrix isolation spectroscopy. Based on new calculations, the global minimum for AuI₃, a missing member of the gold halides, has been elucidated to be that of an L-shaped moiety (C_s symmetry; charge transfer from the I₂ unit to the AuI).
